t of topics and more info

Session topics were specifically chosen to be informative and encouraging to help parents and instructors to better understand and appreciate classical education, its purposes and benefits, and its methods. LPA was able to influence several topics.

Typically, when this caliber of speakers and sessions  are included in the major summer classical and home school conferences, the attendance fees are in the hundreds, but our shared hosting opportunity means the costs are affordable, and LPA will cover the fees for its parents and teachers from its training budget.  

WHEN              Thursday and Friday, January 04 and 05 (see schedule)
                            
Thursday is 8:00 a.m. to 3:15, with an evening Q&A panel event
                             Friday is 8:1
5 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

WHERE               Providence Classical School is physically hosting the event at Eastside Baptist 
                            318 North Jones Avenue, Rock Hill SC  29730

WHY                 The better we understand the legacy, opportunities, and deep benefits of classical education, the more we can pass these qualities on to our children and the next generation. Since most of us were not educated by classical Christian methods and content, we have to be diligent to be learning and appreciating. Educators and parents frequently talk about wanting students to be “life long learners.” This type of adult learning opportunity is a chance for us to model for students.
